Fully agree with you there Lizzie.Some are bad and getting worse and the odd one comes up trumps every time.Survey Network being one.I tend to cash out at the 1st of the month after reaching redemption to spread mine out a bit but now I'm thinking-get the money/voucher immediately on reaching redemption.Why let them keep YOUR money.Until I retire in March, my need may not be as great as others but there are a mass of members out there on low wages,benefits, etc where this money is essential on a normal month, but imperitive in December.To my mind, too many panels,cash flow worries, and companies forcing survey panels to accept longer payment terms.
Still-tis the season to be jolly!

I've been very very lucky this Christmas (please don't think I'm being a big head but have look at this)....... so far I've had (in 2 weeks)....

Really really lucky everything has come in at once... must be doing something right.

Hi all
The payments for the Origin Panel Christmas Forum are going to be paid on the week commencing on the 12th December.

Wow, Ruth.....I think I will retire as the resident survey expert...you should really take over! That is such an impressive list! I am very impressed, and it is wonderful that it all comes in at once. I have had others, too...but it is just that right now that is what I am waiting for....I had a £20 from YSP too, and a £10 from Promise Community, a £4 from Pinecone, a £10 from Join the Dots, and a £50 cheque from Yougov. Sometimes I wish I could quit work too...all the good surveys come in during the day and I check my emails at lunchtime when I get home and do not have enough time to take advantage of them as they are usually closed by evenings...

Thank you Janet, for your help on this...I wish it was next week though as the cheque has to clear, but it is good to know. I will use it towards my last minute grocery shopping.

I think that's where I have an advantage - I only work part time so most afternoons I'm at home....
I just wish I started doing surveys earlier in my life - the amount of times I've been sat at the computer playing stupid online games when I could have been making some pocket money.

I like the fact that everybody is making money from different survey websites/companies - it means we all stand a chance....

well done Lizzie - on your earnings... and thanks Janet for the info.

Bare in mind I saved up points for redemption so I didn't get much for about 6 weeks... scraps.... I knew xmas was coming so I saved up.

your very welcome and very well done ruth nice earnings and a happy christmas for you

Lizzie, try this for opinium research..

If you have passed the payment threshold and haven’t received the payment survey within a week or originally chose to defer your payment our support team are more than happy to process your payment manually.

In order to process payments manually we require some of the following details dependent upon which option you choose:

* Your bank details for a bank transfer
* A name and address so we can write out and send a cheque
* The email address you would like your Amazon Vouchers to be sent to

When requesting your payment, you will also have the option to confirm if you would like to £2.50 or more of your money to our charity of choice, the Mental Health Foundation.

To contact the support team at support@opiniumresearch.com

Once you have claimed your payment, we will always aim to process your payment as quickly as possible with our typical payment time ranging from 7 days or less for bank transfers to around 14 days or less for cheque payments.

probably be quicker if you do it manually!


I left a message on the mindmover topic below, it is coming up to my 30 days on sunday and still as of yet to recieve my payment from them, looks like they are running slow!

Happy spending!

Thank you so much Tez, very useful information. I only reached payment threshold with them yesterday, so I think I will pre-empt them and just say I would prefer to receive payment manually....I think I will just ask them for Amazon vouchers, as they are so versatile!!

I hope you get it soon, Lizzie. :-)

Ruth, that's an impressive list!
